Answer to Monday's Riddle! Planet Home...

MT. WASHINGTON
Excellent guessing Riddlers! It was a tricky one. This week, it's all about planet Earth. Lizzy's review will be out of this world, and Thursday on Top of the Heap, we have a few things to say about our lovely home. Friday, we have something special planned, and Saturday, we enjoy hearing your thoughts on The DMS Wants to Know. So, be sure to check back!

My cryptic clue:
I thought this looked like Earth's eye : ) 
The earth is not the biggest or most spectacular in the Milky Way, but in the space that's out there- it's ours, and it's beautiful. Yesterday was Earth Day, and this week we are taking some time to look around and consider the magic of the moment- after all, it's amazing! And, remember- you never know when Earth is looking back at you! See you all around the book block ; ) ~ F

I'm not the youngest or oldest in line. I can't claim largest or smallest as mine. I dwell in the middle of a cold, dark place, keeping in time with a circular pace. Something bright is the star of the show. It strings me along and gives me my glow. I spin and spin; go round and round- watch the skies stir rocky ground. I've known crashing and banging, seen veils of dust. I like luminescent colors that oxidize rust. My brothers and sisters share my space- they watch the expressions change my face. For, I am as unique as can be. If you take a quick look around, surly you'll see. 

What am I? Answer: Earth

  2. Here's to our wonderful Mother Earth. May she continue to tolerate us and nurture us, especially if we begin to treat her better than we have in the past.

    I loved the images.
